He Yuzhu returns in Siheyuan

Chapter 712: The First Arrest of He Yuzhu

The elder nodded slightly and pulled out a delicate communication jade from his bosom. The jade emanated a faint glow, its surface texture delicate, as if imbued with mysterious power. He held up the jade and said to He Yuzhu, "This jade will be used to contact the relevant individuals."

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu turned to look at Liu Hu, quickly making a decision. He said, "Use this jade to contact those people they mentioned. I want to see who dares to escape under our strict surveillance. I want to catch all those who have slipped through the net in one fell swoop."

Liu Hu nodded respectfully and reached out to take the jade pendant. He examined the communication jade carefully, channeling his own spiritual energy into it. The communication jade shone brightly, then gradually faded, and Liu Hu's eyes became focused. After a moment, Liu Hu raised his head, looked at He Yuzhu, and reported, "Sir, I have found the other party's address through the spiritual fluctuations of the jade pendant. Should we set out now to capture them?"

He Yuzhu frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then looked at Liu Hu and said, "Take them both with you. I want to see if there's anyone hiding there. If there is, we'll make sure they can't escape."

Liu Hu nodded again, took the order, turned around quickly, and summoned some of his well-trained men, ready to set off immediately.

He Yuzhu looked at the busy Liu Hu and added, "I'll arrange the follow-up matters. We'll set off after everything is done."

Liu Hu just nodded silently, without saying anything more, and continued to make preparations before departure in an orderly manner.

He Yuzhu turned to look at Xiaoli, his eyes filled with concern. Xiaoli was lively by nature, but this operation was fraught with danger, and He Yuzhu was truly worried. He said earnestly, "Xiaoli, don't go this time; it's too dangerous. Stay here, and let Lao Si protect you. Lao Si is a steady and composed person, and I feel at ease with him around."

When the fourth brother heard this, he immediately understood He Yuzhu's intention, nodded firmly, and said, "Sir, I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely protect Xiaoli."

Recalling last night, He Yuzhu found Lao Si and said with a serious expression: "Lao Si, don't go out tomorrow."

The fourth elder looked at He Yuzhu with a puzzled look and asked, "What's wrong, Sect Master? Do you have any other plans?"

He Yuzhu looked at the fourth brother, a hint of mystery in his eyes. He pulled a jade token from his bosom and handed it to the fourth brother, saying, "When the time comes, take this token and go find Elder Qingyi and tell him to proceed according to the plan. I will take most of the people away to attract the enemy's attention. This is a golden opportunity for us. If we seize the opportunity, we can inflict a fatal blow on the enemy."

The fourth brother took the jade token, examined it carefully, and instantly understood what He Yuzhu meant. But he was worried about He Yuzhu's safety and couldn't help but ask, "But Master, how can you guarantee your safety if you go there in person? The enemy will surely be prepared. This is too dangerous."

He Yuzhu smiled, patted the fourth brother on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, fourth brother, you don't have to worry. I will naturally have a way to deal with it when the time comes. You just need to act according to the plan, keep an eye on Xiaoli, and assist Elder Qingyi to complete the task." The fourth brother looked at He Yuzhu's determined eyes, knowing that it was useless to persuade him anymore, and could only pray in his heart that everything would go well for the sect leader.

He Yuzhu looked at Liu Hu solemnly and said in a low voice: "Liu Hu, I heard that He Yuzhu has several powerful masters under his command. When you lead the team this time, you must bring a few more capable men with you, do you understand what I mean?" He Yuzhu was well aware of the danger of this operation. This was the first time he personally led troops to carry out such an important mission. There must be no mistakes, and he had to ensure that everything was foolproof.

Upon hearing this, Liu Hu immediately grasped the deeper meaning behind He Yuzhu's words. He knew this mission held immense significance for He Yuzhu, and a failure would have disastrous consequences. So, with a confident smile on his face, he said, "Rest assured, sir. I'm bringing with me only the best of our clan. Those who stayed back home are mere useless scum whose powers have been sealed." Liu Hu was confident in his chosen men, certain they would accomplish the mission with flying colors.

After listening to Liu Hu's words, He Yuzhu nodded slightly, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Very good, as long as you can successfully complete the task this time, I will definitely reward you and let you all get the rewards you deserve." Hearing He Yuzhu's promise, Liu Hu and the little monsters around him became excited, rubbing their hands, and their morale was high.

Afterwards, Liu Hu, Li Di, and the others set off. Although Li Di didn't know He Yuzhu's exact location at the moment, he held a communication jade in his hand, which could roughly determine He Yuzhu's location. Li Di carefully took out the communication jade, muttering something, and a faint glow gradually appeared on the jade. After a while, Li Di looked at the information displayed on the communication jade and said to Liu Hu with joy, "Sir, I have found He Yuzhu's approximate location. When should we set out to meet him?"

Although Liu Hu wanted to leave immediately, he knew that he couldn't make decisions on his own and needed He Yuzhu's instructions. So, he quickly looked at He Yuzhu and asked, "Sir, please..."

He Yuzhu looked at Liu Hu with a firm gaze and said coldly: "Let's go, I want to see with my own eyes whether it is really as you said that we can find those human beings smoothly. If we can't find them by then, you should know what the consequences will be." There was a hint of severity in He Yuzhu's eyes, which made Liu Hu shiver.

Liu Hu quickly smiled apologetically and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will definitely handle this matter properly for you and I guarantee that you won't be disappointed."

He Yuzhu listened to Liu Hu's words without saying anything else. With a wave of his hand, he led the group on their way. He Yuzhu knew he had to buy time this time. Only if he bought enough time would the Fourth Elder and Qingyi Elder have ample time to launch their operations. If he acted too quickly, it would likely disrupt the entire plan and lead to mission failure.

He Yuzhu walked slowly, accompanied by Li Di and the elders from Liu Hu. After all, Li Di and the others were ordinary people without magical powers, so their movements were naturally much slower than usual. Li Di looked at Liu Hu and He Yuzhu, feeling a little anxious. He couldn't help but say, "My Lords, isn't this a bit too slow? Can you please restore our strength first? Once we do, we will do our best to help you find the person. What do you think?" Li Di knew that at their current speed, it would take an unknown amount of time to complete the mission. Restoring their magical powers might improve efficiency, but he wasn't sure if He Yuzhu would agree.
